Some Generalized Single Valued Neutrosophic Linguistic Operators And Their Application To Multiple Attribute Group Decision Making

This paper proposes a group decision making method based on entropy of neutrosophic linguistic sets and generalized single valued neutrosophic linguistic operators. This method is applied to solve the multiple attribute group decision making problems under single valued neutrosophic liguistic environment, in which the attribute weights are completely unknown

In this article, we expand the dual generalized weighted BM (DGWBM) and dual generalized weighted geometric Bonferroni mean (DGWGBM) operator with single valued neutrosophic numbers (SVNNs) to propose the dual generalized single-valued neutrosophic number WBM (DGSVNNWBM) operator and dual generalized single-valued neutrosophic numbers WGBM (DGSVNNWGBM) operator.

In this paper, the hesitant neutrosophic linguistic set is first defined by extending a hesitant fuzzy set to accommodate linguistic terms and neutrosophic fuzzy values. Some operational laws are defined for hesitant neutrosophic linguistic fuzzy information.

Single-valued neutrosophic set (SVN) can valid depict the incompleteness, nondeterminacy and inconsistency of evaluation opinion, and the Power average (PA) operator can take into account the correlation of multiple discussed data. Meanwhile, Archimedean copula and co-copula (ACC) can signicant generate operational laws based upon diverse copulas.

In this paper, we extend the Bonferroni mean (BM) operator, generalized Bonferroni mean (GBM) operator, dual generalized Bonferroni mean (DGBM) operator and dual generalized geometric Bonferroni mean (DGGBM) operator with 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers (2TLNNs) to propose 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers weighted Bonferroni mean (2TLNNWBM) operator, 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers weighted geometric Bonferroni mean (2TLNNWGBM) operator, generalized 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers weighted Bonferroni mean (G2TLNNWBM) operator, generalized 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers weighted geometric Bonferroni mean (G2TLNNWGBM) operator, dual generalized 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers weighted Bonferroni mean (DG2TLNNWBM) operator, and dual generalized 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic numbers weighted geometric Bonferroni mean (DG2TLNNWGBM) operator.

For real decision-making problems, aggregating the attributes which have interactive or correlated characteristics by traditional aggregation operators is unsuitable. Thus, applying Choquet integral operator to approximate and simulate human subjective decision-making process, in which independence among the input arguments is not necessarily assumed, would be suitable. Moreover, using single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic sets (SVNULSs) can express the indeterminate, inconsistent, and incomplete information better than FSs and IFSs. In this paper, we studied the MAGDM problems with SVNULSs and proposed two single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic Choquet integrate aggregation operators where the interactions phenomena among the attributes or the experts are considered. First, the definition, operational rules, and comparison method of single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic numbers (SVNULNs) are introduced briefly. Second, induced single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic Choquet ordered averaging (I-SVNULCA) operator and induced single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic Choquet geometric (I-SVNULCG) operator are presented. Moreover, a few of its properties are discussed. Further, the procedure and algorithm of MAGDM based on the above single-valued neutrosophic uncertain linguistic Choquet integral operator are proposed. Finally, in the illustrative example, the practicality and effectiveness of the proposed method would be demonstrated.

Since linguistic neutrosophic numbers (LNNs) are depicted independently by the truth, indeterminacy, and falsity linguistic variables in indeterminate and inconsistent linguistic environment, they are very fit for human thinking and expressing habits to judgments of complex objects in real life world. Then the correlation coefficient is a critical mathematical tool in pattern recognition and decision making science, but the related research was rarely involved in LNN setting. Hence, this work first proposes two new correlation coefficients of LNNs based on the correlation and information energy of LNNs as the complement/extension of our previous work, and then develops a multiple criteria group decision making (MCGDM) method based on the proposed correlation coefficients in LNN setting. Lastly, a decision making example is provided to illustrate the applicability of the developed method. By comparison with the MCGDM methods regarding the existing correlation coefficients based on the maximum and minimum operations of LNNs, the decision results indicate the effectiveness of the developed MCGDM approach. Hence, the proposed approach provides another new way for linguistic neutrosophic decision making problems.

As an expansion of 2-tuple linguistic intuitionistic fuzzy set, the newly developed 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic set (2-TLNS) is more satisfactory to define decision maker’s assessment information in decision making problems. 2-TLN aggregation operators are of great significance in multiple attribute group decision making (MAGDM) problems with a 2-tuple linguistic environment. Therefore, in this article our main contribution is to develop novel 2-TLN power Heronian aggregation (2-TLNPHM) operators.
